One entry I have consistently linked back to over the past 5 years is a summary I did of John Kreidler’s “Leverage Lost: The Nonprofit Arts in the Post-Ford Era.” Kreidler’s piece provides a great history of how the example of the Ford Foundation shaped the way the current model of funding of non-profits emerged.
Read my reflections in How Did We Get Into This Mess and maybe you will want to take the time to read Kreidler’s longer piece.
